Triple integral over a cylindre or a sphere of the exp of the distance to a point












0












$begingroup$


I'm trying to solve the following integral :
$$iiint_E expleft(-a lVertvec{OC}rVertright),mathrm{d}V = iiint_E expleft(-a sqrt{(x-x_c)^2+(y-y_c)^2+(z-z_c)^2}right),mathrm{d}V$$



With $E$ being a cylinder (if a solution for a sphere exists as well, I'm interested) and $C (x_c, y_c, z_c)$ a point outside of the cylinder.



I found a few answers on mathexchange regarding this sort of integral for a sphere when $C$ is the center of the sphere (ex), but I could not find anything for a C outside of the sphere.



Wolfram|alpha did not find any solutions.



The objective is to be able to calculate auto attenuation effect in a cylinder source for direct line attenuation.



Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

          I might be totally incorrect, as I haven't seen calculus in a long time, but I would think it would be a good opportunity to change to cylindrical coordinates and use the jacobian.



          If this isn't toally nonsense, I'd be happy to try and write it for you assuming dV=dxdydz and xc, yc, zc, and a are constants.

            Yes, a and the coordinate of C are constants. Feel free to give it a try, thanks
